Hi All,
Background
===================
I have installed Python for windows today from the python web site .I also
installed pySerial using the Windows installer from the sourceforge web
site..... Both installs use the default directories.
Phyton version : Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Feb 21 2008, 13:11:45) [MSC
v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
pySerial 2.4 July 6th
Problem : Errors Screen output
============================
import serial
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#0>", line 1, in <module>
import serial
File "C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\serial\__init__.py", line 18, in
<module>
from serialwin32 import *
File "C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\serial\serialwin32.py", line 9, in
<module>
import win32file # The base COM port and file IO functions.
ImportError: No module named win32file
You need to install the pywin32 extensions from:
http://pywin32.sf.net
They're so commonly used (and, if you install the ActiveState
distro of Python, even bundled) that I imagine many Windows
Pythoneers like myself simply install them automatically as
soon as we've installed the main python.org Python.
Once you've done that, the rest should just work: it's
clear from the traceback that the serial module is getting
imported; it's just trying to find the win32file module.
